FTP file in ASCII

I am having an issue in FTP a file to an external server
I create a file using
OPEN DATASET filename
FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
Then to FTP I am using RSFTP002 and the put command. I am able to drop the file onto the external server but the file is received in binary format. What could the problem be. Is it because Compress parameter is set to 'N' ?

Hi Megan,
Can you please detailed me the solution......

Files not FTP'ing in ASCII (CS4)

Hi all.....we are FTPing files to UNIX, and although the config file shows ASCII, our log shows they are going up as BINARY.....I followed the steps found here:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/135/tn_13548.html
This worked for the file I was working on, however the last 2 steps indicate that this is to be done for every file........we have 100's of files.....is there any way to do this globally one time (affecting every page) instead of applying the final two steps for every single file?
Thanks - Steve

We (unfortunately) get a lot of conference work to do and (lo and behold) some of the material we get is done on DVD cameras . Canon, Sony, etc they all seem to have their own way of screwing up with the DVD standards. When you load in Premiere, the footage will skip and burn. Some of it will half-load, some of it will skip, none of it will work or very rarely will...
So what we do here is to install a free plug in called PremiereAVSPlugin-v1.95 and DGIndex. This method is painless once you figure out how it works and will work 110% of the time, guaranteed. It doesn't re-render the files, it just reinterprets them, so you will have your high quality, original DVD files intact.

IDOC to FTP File - Error : SAP:Stack No receiver agreement found for send

Hello Friends,
I need to configure a senario Idoc to FTP File, Í did required settings in R3 and in PI... , did mapping and configuratino in PI... and when I send my idoc I got error msg in monitor
<SAP:Stack>No receiver agreement found for sender ,BMG_ASN_File_Component to receiver ,GTN_224,http://adis-bmg.de/asn,SI_BMG_ASN</SAP:Stack>
I search the fourm but did not got my answer, me just a bit confused...
In my senario I have having followings:
1. Bussiness System ( RFT : sender R3 system). ( I have define a party and make a connection under Idoc Partner )
2. Bussiness Component ( ZTEST_COMP as on Reciever side is File Server, so I define the reciver as bussiness component )
3. Communicatin Channel
 File with protocol FTP having communicatin component as my Bussiness Component ( reciver ). there I defied the required info for FTP
4. Reciever Determination
 Sender:
 - RFT
 - Idoc-Interface
 - urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages
 Reciever
 communication party = space
 communicatin component = ZTEST_COMP
 Configure Reciever:
 There I again define the communication component as ( ZTEST_COMP)
5. Interface Determination
 -RFT
 - Idoc-Interface
 - urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages
 Reviever:
 ZTEST_COMP
and define the mapping which I did in design ( although I have seen some threads where mentioned we dont need maaping in this case ) ?
6. Reciver agrement
sender:
- RFT
Reviver:
- ZTEST_COMP
- SI interface ( SI_BMG_ASN )
- http://test-etc.de/asn
and included my CC for file .....
Now when I send Idoc I got error msg that Reciver is not found : am I dong something wrong ? do I have to defien a bussiness system instead of Bussiness Component ?
Pls suggest...

( I have define a party and make a connection under Idoc Partner
Do you really need a party in your communication? Should it not be a partly-less communication.
In the receiver agreement ensure that you have included the inbound message interface.
communication party = space
No need to give any space.
In the Interface Determination i hope that you have included the receiver meessage interface and then the corresponding Interface Mapping.
If still not works then make some dummy changes and again activate....correspondingly check the cache status of the ID-objects

Abhishek.

How do I FTP files from a security camera to iCloud so they can be retrieved back to my MacBook Pro whenever I connect when travelling?

How do I FTP files from a security camera to iCloud so they can be retrieved back to my MacBook Pro whenever I connect when travelling?
Russ

Do you want to watch the live feed of your secutiry cameras or recorded footage?
In either case, I don't think iCloud is your solution.
For the first one, check with your security camera software, they usually have this option of broadcasting, so you'll know how to access it.
For the later, you should use something like Dropbox (www.dropbox.com), since iCloud file sharing is, up to this date, app restricted.
Hope it helps.

How to Create a Flat File using FTP/File Adapter

Can any body done workaround on creating the Flat file using FTP/File Adapter?.
I need to create a simple FlatFile either using of delimiter/Fixed length. using the above said adapters we can create XML file, i tried concatinating all the values into a single String and writing into a file, but it does not have proper structure
Can any body help me out on this..
Thanks
Ram

You can create a text schema while creating a File Adapter. If schema is specified for File Adapter, it takes care of converting XML into fixed length or delimited format.
Thanks,

How do I establish a dial-up connection in Labview to FTP files (I have the internet connectivity toolkit)?

I'm writing an application that will automatically update files on a server, using the internet toolkit's FTP vi's. It works fine with a LAN, but I'm not sure how to establish a dial-up connection via a telephone modem.
Ultimately, I'd like the program to dial-up, connect, ftp files, then hang up. So far I have used AT commands through the serial compatiblity vi's to dial up and logon to a local internet provider. The provider then spat out an IP number and an MTU number (1524), followed by periodic spurts of garbabe.
Any help in getting to the next level would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Tom

Tom,
You CANNOT dial-up to the ISP using the Internet Developers Toolkit. The toolkit assumes you already have a valid TCP/IP connection. However, many web browsers such as Netscape and Internet Explorer have auto-dialing options that will start dial-up networking automatically when you launch your browser. The only trouble is that the auto-dial wizards can require the user to push buttons, but there is a Shareware program called DUNCE which will take care of the button pushes for you in the auto-dial wizards so the user does not have to intervene in the dial-up process. You can recommend to the customer that the lauch their browser from LV and then have the browser configured for auto-dial and that should take care of the problem. I did not actually try this o
ut myself, but in theory it should work.

Latest version does not work with godaddy ftp file manager

Godaddy has a facility call FTP file manager which is easy to use for the small file uploads via your browser. It is very conveinent and worked in exactly the same way on old versions of firefox as it does on IE.
Now using the latest Firefox it does not.It presents a different screen without the ability to overwrite an existing file.

OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 only supports WebLogic 10.3.5 and 10.3.6.

Dynamic configuration of Receiver FTP File channel

Hi,
The scenario is sending an IDOC from an R/3 system (using IDOC adapter) to a FTP file system. I want to dynamically configure the filename and the target directory in the following cases
1. With filename and the target directory coming as a part of the source IDOC
    structure
2. There is mapping involved (pass thru) and the file name and target directory are
    NOT a part of the source IDOC structure.
I have seen blogs which explains the situation using mapping for File-To-File scenario (Not IDOC-To-File scenario) and some blogs explaining for Http adapter and email adapter, but not for the above scenarios for IDOC-To-File Scenarion.
Your input is highly appreciated.
Regards
Ganesh

hi
use Varable susbtituion in receiver file adapter
you set the Enable indicator, you can enter variables for the Target Directory and File Name Scheme. Enter the names of the variables and references in the table.
●      Enter each variable that you reference in the Target Directory and File Name Scheme fields without the surrounding percentage sign under Name of Variables in the table.
The variables can refer to attributes of the message header or elements of the message payload.
○       If the variables are to refer to an attribute of the message header, add the prefix message: to the name of the variable under Reference. You can specify the following attributes of the message header:
sender_party, sender_service, receiver_party, receiver_service, interface_name, interface_namespace,
message_id (message ID with hyphens, for example 9fbe1ff1-9a0d-11d9-8665-cbf10a126331)
message_id_hex (message ID in hexadecimal format, for example 9fbe1ff19a0d11d98665cbf10a126331)
For example, if you want to specify the interface name from the message header in the target directory or in the file name scheme, enter message:interface_name as the reference.

Full path in Sender FTP file

Hi,
It's necessary to indicate full path in sender FTP file?
I've tried with relative path and patter file* and communication channel monitor returns the error:
Could not process file 'file_000018_sdidis_080109_095115_319_J': com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 550 sal: No such file or directory
It seems to recognize the file to process but it doesn't work.
There is any way to indicate relative path of file sender scenario ?
Thanks, in advance,
Carme

FTP file to SOAP asyn

I created a simple scenario which using FTP file adapter to send out a xml message, then I want to use SOAP adapter to receive the message and send it to a web service to display the message. No response back.
My data type is as follows:
DATA_FILESENDER
empid string
empname string
empage integer
flag
I created two messages which use same data type above for inbound and outbound interface.
Then I created a web service. its wsdl file has input message structure the same as above, no output message structure. The target name space is different from XI's.
When the scenario run, message monitoring shows FTP successfuly send out the message, but SOAP adapter was waiting, then after a while it says system error. I guess it is timeouted.
Could anybody tell me where is wrong with my SOAP adapter or my web service? Thanks a lot!

Hi,
Sekhar and Bhavesh,
I thought I posted the reponse and I was really wondering why no update comes to my email account during past days. It aprently I did not post successfuly.
Anyway, Thanks for the input! I have checked URL and action and check the links provided. But it still does not working. And Has the same error. I am wondering if that is the problem: Soap adapter send out the XML message, but the web service only accept data input seperately. Because I tested my webservice by sending data like "4","c","6","Y" using java program, not sending XML message, the webservice works. I still don't know how to make webservice to work for XI. Please advice. Thank you very much!

I also tried ftp directly fron the XI server using command line and also using winftp utility. In both cases I was successful to ftp the file. The ftp server says we need to run in only active connection mode.
I wonder if any one experienced same problem and how was it resolved? I appreciate your help.
Thank you,
Balaji

Srini,
Thank you for the reposne. THe Q.26 is as follows.
Q: I have configured a File Adapter channel to connect to an FTP server, but receive one of the following error messages in the adapter monitor:
Error connecting to ftp server '<hostname>': SocketException: Connection reset
Error connecting to ftp server '<hostname>': SocketException: Connection refused
Error connecting to ftp server '<hostname>': ConnectException: Connection timed out
A: This problem is either caused by incorrect firewall / packet filter settings or an incorrect configuration of the FTP server. Also make sure that you have correctly specified the host name / IP address and port of the FTP server.
Changing the connection type from 'active' to 'passive' (or vice versa) might additionally help to work around the incorrect firewall configuration.
I was successful in transmitting file via ftp from XI box without any issues. If there are fire wall issues,command line ftp shall fail. I also verified that the file size is good after transmission. I have tried with both active and passive mode without any success.
By the way I have about 6 other ftp communication channels configured and working correctly from the XI box. Please let me know if you want me know.
Thank you,
Balaji

How to know file name in FTP/file Adapter

Iam new to FTP/file Adapter,
when ever we use ftp/file adpter,
afrter pick file from remote server/local system.
how can i fine filename,?
how can handling a fault,if file picked,but data is wrong ?
How we know the picked date, time of that picked file ?
please give me solution

Check this : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25178_01/integration.1111/e10231/adptr_propertys.htm#CHDJBDHC
Search for this topic : Table A-5 JCA Properties for Oracle File Adapter: Normalized Properties.
After the file has been picked up, you can easily fetch the file details using "jca.file.FileName" etc (see above).
Rest should be dealt by you, depending upon the scenario you have.

Loading Flat file in ASCII format

Hi All,
    We are loading data from flat file in ASCII Format . Kindly let me know what are the prerequisites we need to maintain when we load data in ASCII Format .
Cheers!
Raghu

Hi Raghu,
I always load in delimited ASCII. True ASCII format has the advantage of being the fastest way to enter data to BW. But you have to make sure, that the values you import are perfect aligned. So you have to fill in blanks to get the values and characteristics aligned. Delimited ASCII separates by a separator (usually a tabulator or a ";").
Example:
ASCII
10200865678983 10PRODA     2011
10200865678983 20PRODB     4012
Delimited ASCII:
1020;08;8656789383;10;PRODA;20;11
1020;08;8656789383;20;PRODB;40;12
Depending on system you may also be careful how you name your files. In Unix you have to be careful in using Upper/Lower case. Win and Unix systems use different ways to access directories. You have to keep this in mind, especially if you wish to use a function to find the filenames you wish to import.
Also because of Unix or Windows systems you should remember that Unix just need a CR to separate lines, while Windows needs CR/LF. So if you try to import Windows files in Unix systems you will get interesting results. Look at the files you wish to import with transaction AL11. If you see some interesting black cubes at the end of line, you have a windows file you try to load in unix.
Kind regards,
Jürgen

After setting lastmodified time,the date only updated with original but the time is bit differnt (i.e) its updated with some time different
for ex,
FTP File shows>> 30/05/2006 1:39PM
after coping in local file>> 30/05/2006 5:39 AM.
The original ftp file's time is update with different one.
How do i set the time also the same one.
